Due to extreme weather conditions in Munich\, Professor Alyssa Ney could not make it to Lugano. Therefore\, her talk "The Argument from Locality for Many Worlds Quantum Mechanics" will take place neither in person nor online on Zoom.</p>\n<p>To stay updated about possible rescheduling of the talk\, check:</p>\n<p>https://www.usi.ch/en/feeds/25721</p>\n<p>https://philevents.org/event/show/114462</p>\n<p>Or subscribe to the Lugano Philosophy mailing list:&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>https://lists.usi.ch/mailman3/postorius/lists/philosophy.lugano.lists.usi.ch/</p>\n<p>----------------------</p>\n<p>We are pleased to announce that on <strong>Monday\, December 4 at 16:30</strong> (CET)\, <strong>Alyssa Ney</strong> (UC Davis) will give the talk <em><strong>The Argument from Locality for Many Worlds Quantum Mechanics</strong></em> as part of the Lugano Philosophy Colloquia Fall 2023 organised by the Institute of Philosophy (ISFI) at USI.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>This hybrid talk will take place in the <strong>Multiuso room</strong>\, Theology Building\, USI West Campus and online via <strong>Zoom</strong>. If you are interested in joining it online\, please write to events.isfi@usi.ch For more information: https://www.usi.ch/en/feeds/25721&nbsp\; &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Abstract:&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>One motivation for preferring the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics over realist rivals\, such as collapse and hidden variables theories\, is that the interpretation is able to preserve locality (in the sense of no action at a distance) in a way these other theories cannot. The primary goal of this paper is to make this argument for the many worlds interpretation precise\, in a way that does not rely on controversial assumptions about the metaphysics of many worlds.</p>
